control.family: Control variables in control.family

In andrewzm/INLA: Functions which allow to perform full Bayesian analysis of latent Gaussian models using Integrated Nested Laplace Approximaxion

Description

Control variables in control.family for use in inla

Usage

inla.set.control.family.default(...)
control.family(alpha, control.link, control.mix, epsilon, fixed, gamma, gev.scale.xi, hyper, initial, link, param, prior, sn.shape.max, variant)

Arguments

...	Possible arguments
hyper	Definition of the hyperparameters
initial	(OBSOLETE!) Initial value for the hyperparameter(s) of the likelihood in the internal scale.
prior	(OBSOLETE!) The name of the prior distribution(s) for othe hyperparameter(s).
param	(OBSOLETE!) The parameters for the prior distribution
fixed	(OBSOLETE!) Boolean variable(s) to say if the hyperparameter(s) is fixed or random.
link	(OBSOLETE! Use control.link=list(model=) instead.) The link function to use.
alpha	The parameter 'alpha' for the asymmetric Laplace likelihood (default 0.5)
epsilon	The parameter 'epsilon' for the asymmetric Laplace likelihood (default 0.01)
gamma	The parameter 'gamma' for the asymmetric Laplace likelihood (default 1.0)
sn.shape.max	Maximum value for the shape-parameter for Skew Normal observations
gev.scale.xi	The internal scaling of the shape-parameter for the GEV distribution. (default 0.01)
variant	This variable is used to give options for various variants of the likelihood, like chosing different parameterisations for example. See the relevant likelihood documentations for options (does only apply to some likelihoods).
control.mix	See ?control.mix
control.link	See ?control.link

Value

The function control.family is used to TAB-complete arguments and returns a list of given arguments. The function inla.set.control.family.default returns a list with all the default values of all parameters within this control statement.
